1967 Map of Sanborn Park

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Uncompahgre National Forest spans this high-altitude landscape of southwestern Colorado, where the transition from Horsefly Bench down into San Miguel Canyon reveals a history of timber and livestock water management. The mapping records localized infrastructure like the McKeever Sawmill and the Sanborn Sch, points of social and economic focus for the small settlement at Albin. This era of land use is defined by a dense network of mountain reservoirs and springs, including Dead Horse Reservoir and Hole-in-Ground Spring, critical for supporting operations across the high plateaus. Transport routes like the Horsefly Trail and the steep Norwood Hill road navigate the complex terrain of Sanborn Draw and Clay Creek, while the boundary between Montrose and San Miguel counties cuts across the lower half of the quadrangle.
